The Grand Hotel Eastbourne
Latest Reviews
A weekend in a suite organised by my partner for my birthday. Thanks to the hotel staff for making it fun.
I just spent the previous night at the le meridian in London. This was infinitely better. From Check in which was swift and prepared to the spa massage to relax me. Drinks in the bar. Dinner in the French restaurant on Friday night. I can't recommend highly enough. Good food...
Tasting menu. Excellent wine.
More spa the next day followed by shopping and beach walks. The pier is always fun.
Dinner at the main restaurant started badly but quickly rectified. Things go wrong. What matters is how they are put tight.
Will be back with friends.

Good Hotel in a Good location, Rooms are quiet old and loads of creaking noise. Could improve on these points. Also could have kept few more complements like 1-2 extra water bottles. Also could have kept few vegetarian options.

Had a 3 day break here, very luxurious - certainly not my normal
Venue. Found the staff lovely,
Very helpful and friendly. Beautiful building, nice spa ( although didn't
have treatments). I found the food very good, had the tasting menu one night in the Mirabelle Restaurant. Delicious! My mum, who's an accomplished cook was
More impressed with some dishes than others. Our suite was over all extremely comfortable, let down perhaps by a few oversights - wrong remote control for the TV, no minibar, very dim bedside lights. Etc.

Large hotel. Nice location near the seaside. Nice reception and staff. Breakfast is solid.
2 swimming pool (outside - heated) and inside.
Hotel is not new but comfortable. Many places to sit and relax. No any problems or bad impressions during my staying. May be the smell of the old carpets was a bit annoying sometimes. Recommended.

We popped in with friends for an after dinner drink - this is the Grand Dame of Eastbourne, restored to her full glory and she looked beautiful lit up at night. The lounge space was warm and welcoming, staff relaxed and friendly. The drinks are pricey, but they were excellently mixed and the atmosphere was great.

Very good hotel, with excellent location by the sea. Friendly and helpful staff at reception. The quality of the food was also excellent. There is a small gym, which has good range of equipment, and friendly staff willing to show you how to use it properly. Their is an indoor and outdoor pool, both heated; the indoor was quite busy during our stay, the outdoor has a great location, with the sun there most of the day.

We spent one night here in mid April and luckily the weather was fantastic. The service her was top drawer. We had afternoon tea which was delicious and a spa facial which was also very good. We made use of all the spa facilities which may not be the best in the world but were adequate. The room was clean and comfortable and the cocktails extortionate but delicious as was the breakfast. The building itself was magnificent. We loved our stay and would come again.

My friend treated me to Champagne Afternoon Tea which we enjoyed yesterday in the front lounge, once settled in another couple arrived and sat on table next to us, well after they arrived our experience wasn’t one we were expecting, firstly she started to shout at the gentleman she was with, next came the insults to fellow guests including myself which I found amusing to start with but then we became uneasy and had to complain, nothing was done and we didn’t want to move to cause more commotion, she is known to the hotel but it’s no excuse for us to sit and listen to her be so rude and only spent £10 where as my friend spent considerable more and felt it spoilt our special celebration, will think twice before coming here again if this is the sort of clientele we have to endure, luckily food and service was excellent so you have redeemed yourselves a little!

Using our Elite Card a very enjoyable short stay. Had holiday feel even though we live nearby, We were well-looked after, in a comfortable room and good service. Enjoyed breakfast and two evening dinners. Staff helpful and responsive to any requests.

Ideal for total relaxation as everything is taken at a leisurely pace. Very attentive and prompt response to unexpected situations, eg forgetting to bring suitcase padlock key. Slow speed of arrival of breakfast was the only criticism.

My wife and I walked the South Downs Way from Winchester to Eastbourne and wanted to finish our 110 mile trek in style by staying at the Grand Hotel. We were not disappointed; the hotel exuded a stylish and sumptuous ambience, everything was of the highest order and the staff were helpful at every level.

Arrived here on Friday 20th April for 2 nights and was greeted by such a lovely friendly guy called Robert, offered assistance straight away and made us feel very welcome. The Health club was very nice and we was looked after by Angie who couldn't have done more for us, offered us food and drinks and also showed us round and put towels out for us on the sun loungers by the outside pool, she was absolutely brilliant! Our bedroom was very spacious and clean with a nice view. We had dinner on both nights and breakfast in the morning, Good variety of food available and tasted amazing! Fenelon de Sousa & Tom were so professional and made our dining experience enjoyable, memorable and definitely 5 star, even reserved us a table that had sentimental value to us from a previous experience. Overall I had a really nice time and felt like I didn't want to leave. Thanks to all the staff for going above and beyond! Especially the ones that I've mentioned above.

Lovely stay at the Grand. Beautiful room, lovely outdoor pool, attentive staff. The evening dancing on Saturday night was a lovely elegant touch and the band had a good sound. A very nice hotel, highly recommended.

Very pleasant stay with a free upgrade to a sea view suite which was lovely although could do with some refurbishment as the balcony door was falling apart. This didn't in anyway damage our experience as it was fantastic.

We spent a very pleasant 2days/nights at this ‘grand’ hotel on the sea front. The restaurant menu provided something to suit all tastes; was presented and served professionally and the ‘Afternoon Tea’ experience is to be recommended. All staff were outstanding.

Really enjoyed our stay. The hotel is full of Edwardian charm but what makes it is the service which is second to none.

The common areas are dated and the indoor pool and spa needs some refurbishment...but the outdoor pool is a gem, and the rooms, food and drink and service superb and good value. Overall a good spa break with friends.

Have stayed here a few times now and would not think of staying anywhere else in Eastbourne. The staff are always friendly and helpful. Our room was lovely as well as quite as we had requested. Our short stays always seems longer because we can relax in the comfort of the hotel or take a stroll along the sea front. The shops near, short walk, but not too near and the little theatre is just around the corner so always a good place to check out.

Comfortable, friendly and ideal hotel for a short break. Well looked after without being intrusive, good food. Excellent weather was a bonus for the time of year but if it had been poor then the guest room was a very comfortable place to sit with a good book and just relax.

A pleasurable twenty four hours knowing we would be well looked after. Service from arrival to our room, a drink in the lounge and an outstanding 'tasting menu' in the Mirabelle. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable and entertaining.

The Grand provides exceptional service and is a beautiful old world hotel with a very special ambiance that I believe to be unique. The rooms are beautifully decorated with fantastic views out to sea. The level of staff service and attentiveness is first class
